Reefing newb
hi, so i just got into saltwater reef tanks, zero experience whatsoever. had a few small freshwater tanks before, so i know the very basics of fishkeeping.
ive had this tank runnig about 3 days, added live rock yesterday, seems to be doing ok but i have this feeling im messing up.. all the reading ive been doing has made me nervous but i wont quit.
its only a 6g, my plans are a few easy corals at first (i have upgraded lights on the way) one or possible 2 small clownfish, some hermits and a few snails.
it would be great to get some advice and if im doing something wrong please point it out, heres my stats so far, then on to pics
salinity: 1.023
temp: currently 77, (on its way to 81)
PH: 8.1
KH: 225
phosphate: .25
amonia: 0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate:0
as u can see ive put a decent sized shrimp peice in there to help get it started, please help me out with anything im missing, thank you.
